"Come on, it's only a bit of fun!"
"Mother will never know we went!"
"I'm not going."
"Fine, suit yourself. But you're not playing with us anymore."
Raising her head high, Sweetkit returned to the nursery. She wasn't going to sneak out of camp with Petalkit and Pinekit, even if they weren't caught. Anyway, there was no chance their mother would not notice their absence. Sighing, Sweetkit curled up in the nursery and fell asleep.
"Sweetkit, darling. I think you should see this."
Sweetkit stumbled out of the nursery, blinking sleepily. Then she froze as she set her eyes upon the clearing.
Two tiny kit bodies lay in the centre of the camp. Both were covered in blood, which was drying into sticky clumps. Suddenly Sweetkit heard a voice somewhere behind her.
